Wednesday, August 23, 2006Bullying the Grandma next doorThis story appeared on AOL's proprietary news site this afternoon. I'll describe its contents just to make sure; because it's an AOL link, I'm not sure it will work with everyone's ISP or Web browser. A young boy in Jeannette, Pennsylvania has been arrested for harassing an elderly neighbor....

Watch everything - and I do mean everything. That's why you shouldn't just drop your child off at his or her activities, then leave to run errands or go home. That's why you should get to know the adults who claim to care for...

The first attempt failed completely. What can a parent do to prevent molestation? This entry will answer that question, but only partially. This topic is too extensive for just one entry. I'm probably going to need to split up...

I thought I'd continue to cover the topic - particularly as it applies to adolescent boys abused by adult women - here, in this blog. I've noted that in my research on the topic of ephebophilia - that's the term...

(This blog has since been deleted from Avonna's Member Profile.) I mention this blog in here because it is actually the tale of her experiences as a victim of a relationship...

There are a great number of sites on the Internet which might best be described as pro-pedophilia. These sites are not for the faint of heart, and not for the easily shocked either. After having hit these websites, I wonder about the...

Isolation is one of the major weapons of the abuser. Now, I'm not talking about someone who has received instructions from a...

My former boyfriend, as was made clear in my last post, has not outgrown the desire to taunt people as if he were a grade-school bully with no real power to change things. This has me concerned - mildly concerned but concerned...

My former boyfriend - as is his privilege - decided he didn't like the pants. What he did wrong was to taunt...

I was so desperate for a male companion that I would have dated a scarecrow had one come to life. It was not unusual for me to put up with a lot of verbal and emotional abuse. In some of his writings, he claims by implication that we had a... Sign in to see full entry.posted by kidnykid at 1:15 PM Comments (0) (link) |
About this BlogThe name of the post is derived from a Francis Schaeffer book, and intended to rebut something I'd seen on the Internet. The blog itself is about what I've learned about relationships from the ones I've had, and the ones I've observed. It will not be pleasant to read, and might wander off-topic occasionally, but is intended to be a long-term blog reading like a public journal. Links |
